Power Cord ACT C14 to C21 IEC60320 blue 1.5 m, 250 V 10 A

The ACT power cord with IEC60320 C14 (male) to C21 (female) connectors is a blue 1.5 m cable designed for powering IT and network equipment. It is rated for 250 V and 10 A and the C21 connector is high-temperature resistant up to 155°C, making it suitable for professional installations such as server rooms, data centres and rack-mounted devices.

Advantages

This power cord combines standard IEC60320 C14 and C21 connectors for compatibility with many servers, UPS units and network switches. Its 1.5 m length provides flexibility in rack and cabinet layouts while the 155°C high-temperature rating of the C21 connector increases safety and reliability under elevated operating temperatures. The cable is supplied in blue to help with visual identification in multi-cable environments.

Suitable for

When it may not be suitable

This cable is not suitable for devices requiring higher current than 10 A or voltages above 250 V. It is intended for IEC60320-compatible equipment; devices with non-IEC power inlets or proprietary connectors are not compatible without adapters.

Key specifications

How to use

Inspect both the connector types on your equipment to confirm IEC60320 C14 and C21 compatibility. Insert the C14 (male) end into a matching inlet on the power source or PDU and connect the C21 (female) end to the device power inlet. Route the cable to avoid sharp bends and secure it to prevent strain on the connectors. Do not exceed the rated 250 V and 10 A during operation.

What to consider before purchase

Recommendations

Use the blue ACT C14–C21 power cord in rack and data centre environments where IEC60320 compatibility and higher connector temperature resistance are required. Avoid using the cable in installations that demand higher current capacity or non-IEC connectors without appropriate adapters.
